Unlimited is a bit different here. Have a buddy that might bring his turbo LSX 240sx. It fits the rules hahaha.

i have friends that go there and i havent heard they have. trying to stop a fwd car with 6 psi in the slicks isnt fun when the shut down is full of filled in spots and holes. the turn around i have no words for. i had to drive with 1 slick in the gras to stop my oil pan from smashing the ground from all the holes and bumps. not to mention 80% of the pits area is grass/gravel. who wants to work on their car in mud/grass/dirt? that track is not for me.

Lol 8 people showed up and they had test and tune for 20 mins. When 240 whp on bfg's can spin half the track ita not really worth coming.


Nice sink hole in the burnout box lol

Made 5 passes total. i was a little mad about the lack of cars but had a good time none the less.. Raced an awd talon in the finals with a t67 turbo on street tires , he ran a best of 11.76 @ 126 i think.. We ran a best of 11.72 @ 126.. Not bad for my lil DD hatch on a rod/piston ls vtec,log manifold,60-1 turbo.. Oh and open diff and stock axles and its first and last time down the 1320
